Empowering and engaging others
Empowering and engaging others is the most important attribute of the successful leaders
where they achieve great things by helping other to do the task in the best possible manner.
According to Borghuis, empowering others has the positive effect on the people of
organization as they can achieve the great things by helping the organization to achieve its
goals and visions (Borghuis, 2016). As a manager in the company, I have learned about
these from starting that the best way to deal with the teammates is to help them achieve the
best personal self. By helping the teammates to empower them to achieve the great heights
will build in good connections with the them thus resulting in greater achievement of the set
goals and visions of the organization (Caproni, 2011). From the starting, I have built good
rapport with my peers that included subordinates, colleagues and top managers. The
establishment of the good rapport with them was helpful in getting various tasks done by
them in an effective and efficient manner.
According to Arditi is one of the most important ingredients in happily engaging with others
in the best possible manner (Arditi, 2017). Empathy promotes looking at a situation from
other person’s individuals thus giving the individual the chance to express his or her concerns
in the efficient manner. during the team projects there used to be various disputes among the
members on non-fulfillment of the targets (Carlyn, 2017). During one of the most important
client projects, one of the team members became absent due to some kind of personal
emergency that led to the dispute among the team members regarding the careless behavior of
that person. I as the leader of the team used my team engagement qualities to initiate the
positivity in the team so that the stated goals of the client can be achieved. I was able to
convince them on the issues and able to satisfy them with the situation and after period, we
were able to meet out the objectives of the clients. Such situations of team handing where I
had to infuse positivity to initiate the positive engagement among team members helped me
in becoming an effective leader in the organization. These scenarios helped in achieving the
right goals among the team members.
As a behavior, I have used the quality to build meaningful connections with people. During
college days also, the quality had made me the leaders of various groups as people found me
capable of handling various tasks. The quality helped in being interactive and winning many
rounds of the Group discussions of the reputed companies because of the habit of engaging
the other person in the conversation and making the environment cheerful. According to the

Couto, highly interactive people are able to exploit various opportunities because they have
the habit of dealing with people creatively (Couto, 2015).
According to Belbin, I have scored the lowest score as a team worker that means that I might
fail as the team worker but I could say that although team worker is not the right role for me
but I am good as the leaders. I remember the time when the company had to face with the
severe organizational crises where it had to go for the structural shift and during the structural
shift, many employees were rendered jobless. During that period, I had to keep the employees
motivated and hopeful so that they do not get broken in the middle of the journey of the
organization. I organized various recreational activities that included the lunch at different
venue or an informal chat session in the meeting. During these activities, I discussed various
future projects of the organization that would undertake and positive employee initiatives, it
will achieve in the long period. I took these initiatives for the team so that they do not lose
hope and stay committed to the organizational goals and promises. After organizing such
activities, I could sense that the members of my team felt a little empowered and capable of
getting the goals done. As a leader of the organization, it gave me the great feeling
complacency that I was able to achieve the great team engagement even during the periods of
organizational crises. As Belbin mentioned the importance of the team worker where he has
mentioned the important qualities of the team worker that include co-operation, diplomatic
and perceptive and warned for the weak side that include high level of Indecisive nature
(Belbin, 2019).
Although in many situations, I performed well as leader by incorporating high level of team
engagement among team members (G, 2013). There were situations where I was not able to
understand the situation in an effective manner thus leading to poor results. One of the
situations included where one of my subordinates who was consistently the top performer of
the company was not able to perform effectively for the past few days. Due to the consistent
organizational pressure, I got completely irritated and rebuked him for his bad performance.
In the conversation with the employee, I said some inappropriate words without
understanding his situation that made him to grab another exciting offer of the company. My
lack of understanding of the situation led to the loss of one of productive employees of the
company.
According to the Myers Briggs type indicator of personality, I got the personality type of
INFJ that means I had introversion, intuition, feeling and judging qualities in me as the leader
